FDI Center to moderate panel at SelectUSA Summit 2026

FDI Center Managing Director Andreas Dressler will moderate a panel discussion at the 2026 SelectUSA Summit, taking place May 3–6 in Maryland.

The session, "Collaboration in Motion: Working on Regional FDI Attraction Strategies for Economic Development Organizations", is scheduled for Monday, May 4, 13:15–14:15. It will explore how EDOs can move beyond individual efforts to build regional approaches to FDI attraction — aligning marketing, investor engagement, and regional assets to create a unified investment portfolio and turn collaboration into tangible investment outcomes.

Andreas will be joined on the panel by Philip Clement, CEO of World Business Chicago; Jonathan Freedman, President & CEO of World Trade Center Utah; and Mindy McLaughlin, Managing Director of Global Business Development at Team NEO.

The SelectUSA Summit is the premier annual event bringing together business and government leaders to advance foreign direct investment into the United States. If you are attending, we would be glad to connect.
